f) After doing these operations, wait that the machine builds up the operating temperature to make coffee,
lamp (15a) on.
N.B.: the light which shows the correct temperature (15a), will continue to go out and to light up automati-
cally during the heating period. After the lighting of the machine, for the first coffee, wait about 6 minutes
for the ideal heating, while for the following, the machine will be always ready.
11.2 - MAKING ESPRESSO:
Make sure to follow the instructions as per 11.1 " starting of the machine.
To make a good cup of espresso you need good quality coffee, properly roasted and ground.
The pump espresso coffee machine requires finely ground coffee. If the coffee is too coarsely ground the
coffee will be light and without the froth that marks a good cup of espresso. If the coffee is ground too
finely the espresso will be dark and strong and have little froth.
We recommend grinding the coffee beans with a traditional grinder (not a grinder that uses a blade) imme-
diately before you make the coffee since the coffee quickly loses its aroma after it is ground.
A prewarmed cup helps keep the espresso at the right temperature. We recommend placing the cups on
the cupwarmer (2) before use.
a) Make sure there is enough water in the tank (10).
b) Depending on the number of cups of coffee you wish to make, place the one-cup filter (9) or the two-
cup filter (10) into the filter-holder (8) and insert the filterholder into the coffee group (5) with a left-to-right
turning motion until it locks in order to preheat it.
c) Turn on the ON/OFF switch (lever switch/switch) (13). The ON light (13a) will come on to show that
the machine is operating.
d) Wait the machine reaches the temperature in order to supply a coffee, (15a) warning light lighted.
e) Remove the filter-holder (8), fill the filter with one or two measures of ground coffee (one measure per
cup) (Photo 4), level and press the coffee firmly but not excessively with the coffee press (12).
